Another disastrous statistic attributed to Boris Johnson and he wonders why no one wants to buy his book.

PSA: A lot of bots are invading Bluesky, so many of us are being cautious in following back.

Please make sure you put something in your bio to tell people who you are! This is how we find each other!

Like and repost other's posts! This is how we build Bluesky!

And helps show you are not a bot!

I hate the vitriol towards immigrants in the HoC. Too few politicians are prepared to stand up for their amazing contributions to our society or to defend those fleeing asylum. Itโ€™s utterly depressing.

Hard agree. If only they had to support Celtic when only 15,000 fans attended. My husband did!

Today I am thinking about American journalist Marie Colvin and French photojournalist Rรฉmi Ochlik who risked their lives to tell the truth about the Assad regime.

They were assassinated in Syria just for shining a light on peoples suffering during the civil war.

Let us remember.

Please stop telling me to be more patient with Keir Starmer and the NHS. Look at the stats. Every single day they fail to take action, more patients needlessly die.

Why are you OK with that?

Police investigating Labour's Edinburgh council leader Cammy Day Scottish Labour confirmed Cammy Day has been suspended pending the outcome of the investigation.

So this was known about since October, but Labour in Scotland suspends him only when it becomes public? How much more alleged abuse went on in the meantime?

Donate money | Charity donation | Trussell Every charity donation helps provide practical support now and helps us to end the need for food banks in the UK. Donate to Trussell now

Instead of wasting money on useless stocking-fillers that'll end up in landfill by January 1st, why not donate the money to a food bank?

3.2 million Britons depend on them, including 1.1 million children.

Do what you can. Thanks.

Every time I read about banning books, I think of this:

Reading a book with a gay character will not make you gay any more than reading a book about Einstein will make you a genius.
If you're afraid that books might change someone's thinking, you're not afraid of books โ€” you're afraid of thinking.

Gisรจle Pelicot: Ex-husband Dominique giving evidence in mass rape trial that shocked France Gisรจle Pelicot's ex-husband Dominique Pelicot is on trial with 50 other men - the BBC's Laura Gozzi is reporting live from the court in Avignon.

Huge admiration and respect for Gisรจle Pelicot. She has controlled HER narrative and turned it on the perpetrators. Her bravery and courage in waiving her anonymity and speaking out will help turn shame on the abusers NOT the victims, as it SHOULD be.

I took this photograph of a bike in Verona because I liked the shadows of the leaves and how the ground somehow faded into and up the wall. It looked like a photograph before I took the picture.

Good morning Bluesky

Just a reminder that there is nothing socialist about the Labour Party.
They would have fought tooth & nail for the working class.
The rot set in years ago and now they're no better than the Tories.
We've a fairer society in Scotland and need to fight to keep it that way!

With new figures showing that more than one in three children in the UK are now living in poverty, with deprivation hitting a record high, it's good to see the Times focusing on the people who are really struggling

21% of the UK population or 14.3 million people live in relative poverty. Maybe we should talk about them for a change rather than the tax concerns of Jeremy Clarkson's wealthy children
